MY BEAR ....... MY HERO


Bear has always been my hero, yesterday he certainly gained that status by saving me.  We went interstate for some much needed  retail therapy which was fabulous. I also achieved my step count whilst shopping.
Where we go its divided into two areas, firstly we went to the kmart shopping centre where we also had lunch, then drove onto the Big W/Bunnings shopping centre.



Here Bear saved me from being run over on a zebra crossing.  People might stare strangely at us for holding hands at our age.  It sure came in handy as it enabled Bear to pull me backwards out of the path of the car, which went speeding through the crossing. Once the woman realised she slammed on her breaks and refused to proceed until we continued walking.  I was a bit nervous to go in front of her car in case she took off again.  Always something interesting happens when we travel interstate.

See you all Friday for FFF5 check in.

  1. Hi Lindy,

    Thank goodness Bear pulled you back! Gosh, the driver obviously wasn't paying attention. Yay for retail therapy, and getting your step count in while doing it...an extra bonus! Hmm, maybe shopping should count as a FFF goal? lol.

    Hugs

    1. I agree Roz, shopping should be added to our FFF as it makes us feel better and we get our steps in as a bonus.

  3. What a guy! So glad he was there to pull you back. Sam would not go shopping with me for anything, so I need to be extra careful.

    Sending Hugs to Bear Today!

  8. Harry and I hold hands too, always have. Scary moment for you, Lindy, good thing Bear pulled you back. Happy to know you’re feeling well enough to be out and about, getting some retail therapy and a bit of exercise too!

  10. Perhaps we should add Mall-Wandering to our list of goals. It sure would be easy for most of us to look forward to that one! Good thing you were holding hands. in a pinch BIKSS grabs me by my shirt. At those moments i really DO feel like i'm a kid. ah well.

    1. Mall walking would be a fun thing to add. We have to travel over an hour to ours though.
      Glad Bikss grabs your shirt when needed.
